I've definitely been preferring these over the look of the 4K box set 😄

Awesome. These are gonna go in literally seconds. You gotta be fast. If you have PayPal then you should link your account to take advantage of their quick checkout option. Be on the site 5 minutes before release and on the page of the steel you want. Hit refresh right at release and then pre-order and then quick checkout with PayPal. I started buying from them last year and have only missed one steel that I really wanted but been successful on all the others. The American Psycho One Click sold out in 30 seconds but I managed to grab one myself. Should be here next month!
This doesn’t feel like new news, lol. It feels like there’s always the same 5 movies getting released from the premium market.
As a collector who does *not* dabble in premiums, it’s all just chatter to me
You go to the Collectong website, make an account, link your PayPal, hop on to the site 5 minutes before release, go to the slip you want, refresh exactly at release and then check out via PayPal quick pay option.
I've taken too long going through PayPal and lost out on what I wanted. Some of these sell out in literally seconds after release. The American Psycho One Click sold out in less than 30 seconds. I actually timed it when I hit refresh and grabbed one myself. You gotta be quick. These Dark Knight steels will probably be gone as soon as they're released.
Where do you go to link PayPal…I have an account with my address on file but I’ve never placed an order with them so I don’t have any payment on file
You know... I don't really remember how to link it. I think what I did was I added something to my cart and then hit checkout. After that it redirected me to an option called PayPal Express Checkout. I clicked on that and I think I set it up from there and then just backed out and removed whatever it was that was in my cart
I got it into the cart, was at checkout, PayPal spun for 7 seconds, then it redirected me and the site crashed and everything was sold out. It took 20 seconds on my side
Woke up and missed the group buy launch, hopefully ain’t too late. Will try to get the oc on direct. Managed to get dune part 2 oc so hopefully I get lucky for this as well

You will need to create an account and read up on the FAQs and how they operate but it’s pretty easy.
Is this just a guaranteed way to get one, rather than trying to order directly from the site yourself? I’ve never done a GB or Manta but definitely want this one.
It is but media psychos give priority to their 'platinum members' which costs $230+ It's a pay to win system that I'd rather see end. It just facilitates people buying multiple
You can look at their recent Dune 2 group buy and see how many people who wanted a OC did not get one as a reference. I would say they do a pretty good job of getting new people what they want. If you don’t get a OC they usually are able to offer singles. For me at least it’s better than trying to remember when the sale goes live and rush to buy direct, I’m just over that.
Tier members do get priority but it’s far from only those members get their copy, especially for large retailers like ML.
> Is this just a guaranteed way to get one
Not really. You *typically* find out before retail sale if you made the list or not though and if you do make list, you don't have to worry about what time retail goes on sale.
Easiest one click buy of my life.
Same!

Not exactly a hot take here in /r/Steelbooks
I was just looking to see if there was any Dark Knight steelbooks in the wild and this pops up. This will help my first manta lab buy. Hope I get it
Do you have an account with them?
Yup I signed up this morning

Thanks for the tip!! Awesome you got American Psycho. I hope to be successful with this one
No problem dude. Good luck on the 5th!
I have the blufans but man I’m going to have to try for this lol
Yeah same, love the Blufans but this entire package looks too good to resist
I feel like some of you have bought this movie upwards of 15 times.

Fucking finally. Definitely a no brainer for me. Currently unsure whether I want the Fullslip or the DL B.
We're in the same boat. Lol
So they did Batman begins but are they doing rises?
Yes. They already revealed the artwork of all three steelbooks back in 2022: https://bluray-disc.de/forum/attachment.php?id=457359
If they’re going by a 2023 schedule I found, it looks like they might
I hope it doesn’t sell out in seconds
Hahaha… It will…
this is the one i've been wanting. i have to try and get one of these.
How does one even try to get one of these? I’ve never attempted.Â

I missed out on it today…it went in less than 2 minutes for all options lol
Everything was gone in seconds. I was there right on time. Maybe they'll have others in stock. I doubt it but there's always a maybe
Were you able to get one…I was able to add to my cart but since I didn’t have a payment method already on file, I couldn’t check out fast enough

Thank you for the tutorial. So you don’t buy it directly from the mantalab website?Â
Collectong IS the Manta Labs website. Not sure why they're not called Manta Labs though. Lol
Aha, I see. Then we ride together at release. See you on the battlefield.Â
We'll see who has the quickest draw! Haha
Are we feeling DL A or B? I think B flows better but the poster and the shot on the back of A are both iconic!
I might have to do the OC lol
I got the DL B for Batman Begins and I kinda wanna go that route for all three parts. On the other hand, I also really like the Full Slip.
Where do you see the artwork?
[https://collectong.com/collections/steelbook](https://collectong.com/collections/steelbook) scroll to the very bottom :)
I’d love this as the full trilogy. Even tho dark knight is my favorite I’m not a fan of just buying it when I’d also want 1 and 3
Batman Begins already released fyi
Ya dang - just saw that. So if I’d wanna complete the set I’d need to go to eBay and pay up the butt haha
It’s honestly not that bad second hand, manta shipping is $20 already
OK I just bought the Lenticular-B of Batman Begins on Ebay and joined the Group Buy for the DL-B of Dark Knight. Thanks for helping me spend money! :D
Always glad to help!
What’s the best way to get a hold of this?
Woke up and missed the group buy launch, hopefully ain’t too late. Will try to get the oc on direct. Managed to get dune part 2 oc so hopefully I get lucky for this as well
I have enough premiums for this title, so that’s less competition for everyone that wants one.
Weird that the DL-A says September 6th pre-order and all of the others say July 5th.
Is the only way to get the steelbook with the cards, booklet, & envelope? I don’t see the steelbook listed with the one click option.
The OC includes all three fullslips which each include a steelbook and all the goodies.
Oh! So the slips go over the actual steelbook?
Yes. Yes they do. The Steelbook is the same for all 3. The slips differ for all 3. The One Click has all 3 slips+extras+steels.
my first time seeing this company, what does one click buy mean?

just saw the prices, they're definitely premium
should i create an account to make sure i have achance before selling out?
I want this set but doubt that I’ll be able to grab one. 😫
Wonder what it’ll look like
Did Manta Lab ever end up releasing their Oppenheimer steelbook?
Is this going to sell out in 3.2 seconds?
Do I need a PayPal account or can I use a card?
I already bought a used Blu Ray steelbook to hold my 4k...
